She started strong with quarterfinal runs in Adelaide and Melbourne and stumbled in the Middle East. But she bounced back to win her maiden WTA title at the Merida Open, defeating Emiliana Arango with a double bagel in the finals. Since then, her only deep run came in Charleston, and she hasn&rsquo;t gone past the round of 16 elsewhere. She holds a 16-11 record, with 45 aces, a 63.1% first-serve win rate, and a 48.1% break point conversion. <\/p><p>Blinkova, on the other hand, has posted a 14-12 record this season. She reached the quarterfinals in Linz, upsetting Elina Svitolina, before falling to Clara Tauson, and in Austin, losing to Jessica Pegula.
